A schoolgirl uniform fetish is a sexual fetish in which either a woman enjoys dressing in the typical uniform of a schoolgirl, or a man derives sexual pleasure from viewing women dressed in this manner. While this is classified as a sexual fetish, it does not require any actual sexual contact per se. The schoolgirl uniform fetish is common in both Japanese and Western pornography, making it one of the most widespread clothing-oriented fetishes worldwide. However, due to the taste of the audience, the schoolgirl will act differently.
The Catholic or English schoolgirl look
In Western pornography, the typical uniform is of the type described in Catholic school uniform, though in England it is also used by some Church of England and more traditional non-religious schools. It usually includes a very short, pleated skirt such as real schoolgirls wear for netball. The blouse worn is usually white, and may optionally include a tie and/or a straw boater (or other schoolgirl-style hat). For maximum authenticity, the uniform should include socks (usually white and often knee-length) and the sort of shoes a real schoolgirl would wear, such as Mary Jane (shoe)s. Alternatively, the woman may wear stockings with a skirt short enough to reveal the stocking tops and high-heeled shoes; this combines an explicitly sensual element with the traditionally innocent schoolgirl look. Preferred panties are usually voluminous white cotton knickers, but can be dark blue or dark green in colour. Undergarments that are conventionally considered "sexy" (that is, very revealing and/or composed of silky fabrics) can be worn, but are largely shunned by purists.
Lolita pornography frequently utilizes images of women in schoolgirl uniforms. Note that this look is sometimes favoured by male transvestites as well.
Due to the influence of Britney Spears, the variant of having the lower part of the blouse tied off to show off the midriff is becoming more popular.
The Japanese schoolgirl look
In Japanese pornography, the female wears a Japanese school uniform. Typically this is based on the summer sailor fuku type (white blouse with blue sailor colour and red tie, as well as a blue pleated skirt), except the skirt is shortened significantly. However, numerous variants exist: these can be based on Catholic schoolgirls or uniforms from anime or hentai, such as the "bustier plus miniskirt" outfit seen in Bible Black. Generally, "authentic" uniform design maximizes the display of the body's curves with minimal skin exposure.
In addition, numerous uniforms that are associated with Japanese schoolgirls are also used: examples include the form-fitting navy blue one-piece swimsuit, the typical gym clothes for Japanese schoolgirls consisting of a tight white top and navy blue tights plus sneakers, and traditional Japanese martial art garb.
Appeal
The schoolgirl image may appeal to women because it allows them to project a more youthful, innocent, or virginal image. These same reasons can explain part of the look's appeal to males as well. It may also have a less sexual aspect of nostalgia, recalling memories of a simpler time in one's life.
